magnifying square following you around.
Do you by chance have a cordless mouse with little buttons on the side? I have one of those and that happens when I hit them by mistake.They are right where your thumb sits when you use the mouse. Usually I just double click the buttons and it goes away.

Start at square 1. See if you can determine where the
noise is. Your computer has at least 3 fans in it. There is one near the hard drive, one on the motherboard in front of a little "box", and one on the power supply. You may have more, dependng on type of computer. They are all essential and are not that expensive to replace, but not replacing them can burn up your entire computer. The one on the power supply would require that you change out the entire power supply, but that is not hard to do, either, cost is usually less than $50.

1000 square feet?
I can't imagine living in such a cramped space! Why, our master bedroom suite alone is 850 square feet!

Romey, some docs will say square meters
meters squared, but it's all the same. The reason you would write 400 mg/sq m this way is because the slash mark stands for "per." If the slash mark was between the sq and m, you'd have square per meter. Now that doesn't make sense, right?

you sound just as bitter and defensive, so we're square. nm
